The gun looks great. If I remembered correctly, it's a late 1914 gun. Was this acquired recently for $500? Unbelivable. Recently, I listed a similar one for sale asking $1850, one viewer sent me message wanted to bargain some money down. I changed my mind and delisted the gun. I need one like this.

Have you tried it in range? I tried mine. Reliability is comparable with the postwar P1 in normal range condition. Accuracy, well, not a target pistol, but with stock attached, hitting a head size target at 50 yards does not require a sharp shooter. The light reflection from the reverse triangle of the rear sight prevented me doing any better.

[Edit] Sorry, it's not my purpose saying you should shoot this. It's a collectable. Normally, collectors don't fire it.

Did you know Cheka agents executed Tsarina using by a 7,63 exactly like this one in 1918.
